City Council to Review Trail Concept Design Report

The Kalispell Trail & Complete Streets Concept Design Report prepared by Alta Planning + Design will be presented for the first time to the Kalispell City Council during their March 11, 2019, 7 p.m. work session. This document represents a refined concept plan. It has been reviewed by the Trail Crew who has proposed several modifications and additions prior to considering it a final document. It is anticipated this will occur within the next two months. The city will also revisit the complete street portion of the project by submitting a Supplemental Environmental Assessment document reconsidering all proposed alignments prior to selecting a preferred route. This should be complete during the summer of 2019. In terms of the overall project time frame, CHS and Northwest Drywall should be moved out of the Core Area and into their new facilities by this fall. Track removal and trail construction would then begin spring of 2020 with completion in late 2020.
